Daily Dose of BS Jan 4 exit 3

The state of Wisconsin just spent millions of dollars re doing the I 90 bridge over highway 35 and now it will be worked on again with big changes for the Exit 3 traffic design.  More stoplights will be added, some business entrances will be moved, some businesses will be moved, there will also be an eagle viewing area and trails added along the Black River.  The transition will be to give the area a new urban feel.  The dot will be getting rid of the cloverleaf loop, being replaced with diamond configurations and controlled intersections, slowing traffic.  There will be added medians, on Rose and West George streets blocking left turns requiring vehicles to travel new roads to gain entrance to existing businesses.  I drive this twice daily and something needs to be done.  I am shocked that it has taken this long to do so.  My biggest complaint is why did it take a couple of steps to get it done, why not do it when the whole thing was tore up over the past few years instead of finishing one project then making a whole new project.
